Macd

[marwan305]

my macd has only one signal line and main bar line only. i don't have the other line. so its hard for me to find the divergence. can someone help? im using metatrader 4. thanks a lot.

Use this indicator for detecting divergences.

Copy to your experts->indicators folder

Hope that helps.

I need a MACD that display two colors.

The standard MACD indicator that comes with Meta trader 4 only show one color.

My idea!

IF MACD histogram bars below 0 line then histogram bar color = red
IF MACD histogram bars above 0 line then histogram bar color = green


BEST WISHES,

Below is the code. Can some one fix this for me ?
